A word or 2 of caution on chasing semi-land stocks. Demand for the latest, leading edge technology can be misleading and almost always is near a cycle peak. Double or over ordering occurs right before or at the peak. CEOs and analysts extrapolate the short term future based on faulty data, as the excessive ordering only becomes apparent in hindsight.

Here are weekly semi charts for reference:

So it's good to ask, what is the cycle status at the moment?

This can assist with entry and exit strategies....
